DS28C50
DeepCover® I2C Secure SHA-3 Authenticator
with ChipDNA PUF Protection
General Description
The DS28C50 secure authenticator combines FIPS202-compliant secure hash algorithm (SHA-3) challenge and response authentication with Maxim’s patented ChipDNA™ technology, a physically unclonable function (PUF) to provide a cost-effective solution with the ultimate protection against security attacks. The ChipDNA implementation utilizes the random variation of semiconductor device characteristics that naturally occur during wafer fabrication. The ChipDNA circuit generates a unique output value that is repeatable over time, temperature, and operating voltage.
